It illuminates how the Siberian Expedition exacerbated tensions within Canadian society at a time when a radicalized working class, many French-Canadians, and even the soldiers themselves objected to a military adventure designed to counter the Russian Revolution."--Jacket.Studies in Canadian military history,1449-6251.Labor movementCanadaHistory20th centurySoviet UnionHistoryAllied intervention, 1918-1920Participation, CanadianVladivostok (Russia)History20th centurySiberia (Russia)HistoryRevolution, 1917-1921Labor movementHistory947.084/1Isitt Benjamin1978-1642224MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910821776803321From Victoria to Vladivostok3986811UNINA
